Yesterday I was rewatching Fried Green Tomatoes (great movie, loved the book too when I read it a few years ago) with my mom and turns out my mom thought Idgie and Ruth were best friends all along. Like the convo was something like:
My mom: The film is great, and the protagonists are such good friends, it's beautiful.
Me: Mom-- you do know they're lesbians, right?
My mom: Wait, are they???
Me: Yeah-- I mean in the book it is explicitely said they're a couple. The film is more ambiguous due to censorship and all, but if you read between lines-- it's actually pretty obvious.
My mom:
My mom: You know what, yeah, if they're gay that actually explains a lot.
It only took her 33 years lmao.

Is there anyone around here who knows where this scene comes from? Can I find it somewhere? Because I can't find it anywhere, I've been looking for it for YEARS and I only have this gif, the script and this photo.
Is there any special edition of the movie, like, I don't know, the 30th anniversary that has it? I'M BEGGING.

(The Book of) Ruth 1:16 | Fried Green Tomatoes
Ruth quotes from The Book of Ruth (Bible, The Old Testament), and that brings back SO MANY memories.
I had a math teacher in high school named Ruth, whom I was madly in love with, so, for English class, I chose “The Book of Ruth” to make an essay of...naturally. Flash forward: I was digging around for my old King James after watching “Fried Green Tomatoes” and I’d forgotten I’d highlighted “The Book of Ruth” and had scribbled a note on the bottom:
“Call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.” (Ruth 1:20).
Whaddaya make of that? Anyway, as these stories go, Miss Ruth got married later that year, and I was devastated. HAHA. 🤣

Watching Fried Green Tomatoes while I knock out some work and goddamn if this movie didn’t help shape my adolescent bisexual aesthetic…

Fried green tomatoes is such an underrated movie. I love it so much. It’s got it all, 1920s southern accents, a queer couple that is never a ‘couple’ but it’s heavily implied and they raise a boy together, it’s set in my home state, and of course, the white shn-azi gets what he gets.
I never understood why my mom loved it so much (beyond it being a very good movie). I understand now, but that’s her secret to keep.
